Ari Aster’s absurdist break-up movie “Midsommar” is now in theaters [review]. No matter its flaws, it is your duty, as a cinephile, to go and seek this movie out. After two viewings, I can unequivocally state that I have never seen a movie mix horror and comedy quite this way before. Ari Aster’s vision is truly unique. It will no doubt polarize audiences the same way Darren Aronofsky’s “mother!” did a few years ago. It starts off with a rather slow set-up, but Aster finally lets ‘er rip when the “outrageous” payoff happens. Abandoning all self-seriousness and going for full-on horror comedy was this movie’s calling.
